- Clean your Cover
Covers can get musty and trap bacteria in the underside. Chlorine/Bromine systems bleach out the smell of a musty cover, but BaquaSpa does not. Therefore, on the BaquaSpa system, it is important to treat the underside of your cover with a cover cleaning product (BaquaSpa makes a great one!). You can also protect your cover from the sun with a vinyl protectant called 303. - Maintain your Calcium Hardness level at 300ppm
If you’ve memorized your test strips (and if you have, we suggest getting a hobby!) you know that the ideal range for calcium hardness is 200-400ppm. According to our expert friends at BaquaSpa, 300ppm is the best range to keep the calcium hardness in your spa. See the beer example down at the bottom of the page! Remember: there is only a product to increase the calcium hardness level in your water, there is no chemical out there to decrease the level of calcium. - Add Metal Control in your water
When you first fill up, you should bring a water sample to us, especially if you have well water. Your test strips aren’t able to show if there are metals in your water, but our testing system can. If you do have metals in your water, add metal control into your spa. You will only need to add metal control once for each refill (unless you add “fill” water to your spa from time-to-time)
